Shame on you! :lol: I consider designing the most satisfying and enjoyable work I’ve ever done. What do you want to get into?

I only pull in about 35k/yr… But I’m still developing my skills…

Hehe… On a serious note…

I went to school to study Computer Networking…  
Didn’t do anything in school but get high, and play with Flash and [VS.Net](http://VS.Net) …  
Graduated with a 3.6 GPA - and got a job working as a Quality Assurance Engineer @ Verizon.

I have an interview in 2 weeks for the position of Jr. Developer (still, not a field I went to school for) working on Integrated Voice Response telephone systems…

I want to work on cars, build furniture, create USEFUL applications (rather than IVR \*\*\*\*), or move to Canada…

But I chose to do the ‘hot jobs’ thing and wound up working for a company that works on the two things I hate most in this world…

Telephones, and Automated Telephone Systems…

I hate my life…

And you know what… THE \*\*\*\* STILL DOESN’T WORK!

Mostly, I get paid $16/hr to read the forums @ [Kirupa.com](http://Kirupa.com) and work on other projects.

Don’t do the ‘hot jobs’ thing… Do what you like, learn from it, expand, and create your own friggin hot job.

h8ing life right now,

The table was about what’s a degree worth.  
I doubt there are degrees in that job.  
btw.: Prostitiution in Germany is legal and there was a report about a bordell owner some time ago on german television. - You don’t really have to speak german to understand his arguments.

wow, well thanks for the input, especially to kedaeus. I think I have made my decision, probably mechatronic engineering. Sound fun? maybe. Still need to do some more research first 😛
